1. Tom Haverford: Juice Cleanse (with Champagne)

Start juicing — but with champagne. It might not be scientifically proven to "cleanse," but technically neither are actual juices. The bubbles most likely have some sort of healing properties?

2. Ron Swanson: Paleo

The Paleo diet is for you. Take it one step further and hunt and kill all of your own meats for an added sense of satisfaction.

3. Leslie Knope: All Carbs, All the Time

Waffle House is calling your name. Redefine "carb-loading" on your own terms with a steady stream of waffles piled high with syrup, whipped cream, and feminist truth-bombs.

4. Andy Dwyer: The Butter Diet

Give the butter diet a shot. It goes with all of your favorite foods — pancakes, toast, popcorn, grapes — and is full of nutrients like fat and cholesterol.

5. Donna Meagle: The South Beach Diet

Like the actual South Beach diet, but really you just hop in a drop-top and make a beeline for South Beach, Miami. There shirtless waiters will deliver bottomless Mai Tais to you.

6. April Ludgate: Hot Sauce on Everything

Just add hot sauce! What better way to keep things lively and colorful — just like April.
